Beschreibungen
<p><span>Deluged with messages that range from “It’s Ivy League or bust” to “It doesn’t matter where you go,” college applicants and their families often find themselves lost, adrift in a sea of information overload. Finally—a worthy life preserver has arrived. </span><span>The Enlightened College Applicant</span><span> speaks to its audience in a highly accessible, engaging, and example-filled style, giving readers the perspective </span><span>and</span><span> practical tools to select and earn admission at the colleges that most closely align with their academic, career, and life goals. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span> In place of the recycled entrance statistics or anecdotal generalizations about campus life found in many guidebooks, </span><span>The Enlightened College Applicant</span><span> presents a no-nonsense account of how students should approach the college search and admissions process. Shifting the mindset from “How can I get into a college?” to “What can that college do for me?” authors Bergman and Belasco pull back the curtain on critical topics such as whether college prestige matters, what college-related skills are valued in the job market, which schools and degrees provide the best return on investment, how to minimize the costs of a college education, and much more. Whether you are a valedictorian or a B/C student, this easy-to-read book will improve your college savvy and enable you to maximize the benefits of your higher education.</span></p>
